I agree with this, and I see it too. For my personal response to the George Floyd murder, and the way it brought the wounds that need to be healed and the wrongs that need to addressed front and center, is to focus on the larger issues, the wounds and the wrongs, healing and justice (for what small part I could play) rather than an organization or politics. The history, the wound, the wrongs, the way forward, in my mind, are all way bigger than any organization, and way bigger than today's polticial discussions.
